Study Summary

This trial will compare two care models to inform future clinical decisions on which is most suitable for patients.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults over 18 with certain acute illnesses who live in specific areas, can consent to treatment (or have a proxy who can), visit participating hospitals, and have insurance covering Advanced Care at Home services. It's not for those deemed unsuitable for either care model by their clinical team or unable to consent.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study compares two ways of treating acutely ill adults: the traditional hospital stay versus receiving advanced medical care at home. The goal is to see which method works best under routine conditions and help guide future patient care choices.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial compares different settings of healthcare delivery rather than medications, it does not directly involve medication side effects. However, risks may include differences in recovery times or quality of care received.
